Chapter 280 'Judgment' and 'The World' in Place: Klein's Imagination
Under Evan's lead, all the members of the Tarot Club completed the club's routine greetings.
"Mr. Fool, who are these two?"
广3
Miss Audrey, the most cheerful and kind-hearted member of the Tarot Club, was straightforward and outspoken. After bowing, she excitedly asked Mr. Fool.
She was genuinely happy for the growth of the Tarot Club.
The woman next to Fors, judging by her height, must be Miss Hugh Deercha!
The person sitting at the end of the bronze table, wearing a hooded black robe, is likely a man. He is reserved, makes few gestures, and appears mysterious, suggesting he is a very serious and experienced extraordinary individual.
Fors and Hugh both joined the Tarot Club through my introduction. I don't know how they joined. Was it introduced by Mr. "The Hanged Man" or Mr. "Strength", or was it personally invited by Mr. "The Fool"?
Um, Evan has been secretly observing that mysterious member. Do they know each other in real life?
Because Audrey "read" too many secrets at His Majesty the King's birthday banquet, and even gave a gentle push to the military reform, she finally digested the "mind-reader" potion.
So yesterday, she used the recipe and materials she obtained from Xiaoxiao and "Sun" to successfully concoct a magic potion, completed her promotion, and officially became the audience pathway sequence 7 "Psychotherapist".
It was precisely because she became a 'psychologist' that Audrey became more perceptive of the psychological activities of the Tarot Club members!
"This is Lady 'Judgment,' and this is Mr. 'World'!"
After Mr. Fool introduced himself, Hugh and Mr. World, who was being manipulated by Klein, stood up again and nodded to everyone. The other members of the Tarot Club also nodded in response and announced their code names.
Klein also noticed Evan's focus on "the world" and was secretly pleased, because this was what he wanted.
Because Evan knows "The Fool" too well and has too deep a relationship with the real-life Klein, he is worried that one day Evan will equate "The Fool" with Klein.
By having Evan equate "The World" with Klein, he could better protect his identity as "The Fool," which was also one of his original intentions in creating "The World" by leveraging Rosago's extraordinary "Master of the Puppet" ability.
So when he discovered that Evan wanted to explore the true identity of "The World", Klein immediately manipulated "The World" to nod slightly to Mr. "Power".
Like a child who has gotten the answer he wanted, Evan contentedly withdrew his probing gaze.
This made the other members realize that Mr. Power and Mr. World really knew each other in reality, and that Mr. World might have been introduced to Mr. Fool by Mr. Power.
Alger also keenly observed the eye contact between the "Magician" lady and the "Judgment" lady.
Miss Justice and Mr. Power met in reality. Miss Magician was introduced by Miss Justice and also met in reality. Now, Miss Magician has met Miss Judgment in reality.
Does this mean that 'power,' 'justice,' 'magician,' 'judgment,' and 'the world' are all recognized in reality?
They're all from Backlund, and might even be friends?
In that case, besides the sun in the "forsaken land," wouldn't I become the only outsider?
This discovery immediately reminded Alger of the dozen or so families that monopolized the Storm Church. These families were related by marriage, classmates, and supported and relied on each other, making it extremely difficult for outsiders to break into their circles. This led to fierce competition for the exceptionally narrow path to ascension.
This forces ambitious people to take the initiative to apply for opportunities to venture out and explore.
Alger volunteered to patrol the ocean and venture out to explore as the God of Storms for this very reason.
Judging from Mr. Fool's words, he clearly doesn't care about the private relationships among Tarot Club members. Therefore, I cannot be excluded from this small circle; on the contrary, I should actively join in.
We can no longer stand idly by as before; we should actively interact with other members, and we should start preparing for a deal with Mr. "Power".
Um, apart from "The Sun," everyone else is from Backlund. Should I also buy a house in Backlund?
Become a Backlund?
However, I don't have much money left in order to advance to the 'Wind Favorite' rank. It seems that I should go to that island with a lot of extraordinary materials as soon as possible this week and harvest some!
Alger, the "Hanged Man," felt a great sense of urgency after discovering the interaction between "the world" and "power," and the eye contact between "the magician" and "the judge." His thoughts were all focused on buying a house, which left Klein, who had been waiting for Alger to take the initiative to submit Roselle's diary, somewhat dumbfounded.
"What's wrong with him today? Why is Mr. Hanged Man out of the loop again?"
The other members also noticed that Mr. Fool was looking at Mr. Hanged Man, so they all looked at Alger as well, startling the now-sane Alger. He then remembered that he still owed Mr. Fool the diary of Emperor Roselle, and quickly said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Fool, I accidentally spaced out. I'll submit six pages of my diary again this time; that's the limit of my memory."
The last page will be submitted to you next time!
Klein naturally wouldn't punish Alger for this, but he was just a little curious as to why Alger was distracted at this moment.
"I also managed to collect two pages from Emperor Roselle's diary this time!"
After Alger spoke up, Evan also said that he had never forgotten Mr. Fool's needs and had actively helped him collect two pages of his diary.
Hearing Alger's words, Klein was naturally delighted, since Alger owed him these diaries, and he naturally didn't have to pay any extra price.
But Evan's diary wasn't so easy to get. Evan did owe Klein a considerable sum of cash, but he didn't owe Mr. Fool anything. On the contrary, Mr. Fool owed Evan a few pages of his diary as payment.
Mr. Patient couldn't possibly use Klein's claim to forgive his own debts; otherwise, Mr. Fool's prestige would instantly crumble.
More importantly, Evan has no shortage of money, or even formulas and materials. So what he is most worried about now is that Evan will make demands that he cannot meet. He can only hope that Evan will make him owe him money again, just like before.
After obtaining permission from Mr. Fool, Alger and Evan simultaneously focused their minds, recalled the contents of the diary, and expressed their strong desire to write it down. They quickly finished writing and delivered it to Mr. Fool.
Fors, attending the Tarot meeting for the second time, and Hugh, attending for the first time, looked longingly at the diary that appeared in Mr. Fool's hands.
His mouth was practically watering, and he was also incredibly annoyed with himself for ignoring Russell's diary when he attended extraordinary parties in the past.
Even though they now know the value of Emperor Roselle's Diary, there's no way to salvage it, because the diaries circulating in Backlund have already been swept away by Miss Audrey, the "Justice," who led them onto the path of the Extraordinary. They believe she should have already handed them over to Mr. "Fool." It's too late for them to collect them now.
Thinking of this, Fors and Hugh couldn't help but look at "Justice" Audrey with a mournful expression.
As a 'psychologist', Audrey naturally noticed Fors and Hugh's emotions, but could only stick out her tongue in her mind and pretend not to see it.
Even the closest of friends wouldn't give up something as versatile as Russell's Diary, which could be exchanged for valuable knowledge, intelligence, materials, and help from Mr. Fool.
Klein paid no attention to the tarot club members' little schemes, and looked down at the first page of his diary.
"On February 9th, I had my third child, and I named him Bonova!"
Alger's six-page diary contained a great deal of information. In it, Rosell not only detailed his family situation but also mentioned Zarathustra's prophecy about his three children, as well as some information about the Sauron family.
Most importantly, Roselle mentions for the first time the mysterious organization that possesses the Blasphemous Tablets, and explicitly states that they intend to create Blasphemous Tablets to disrupt the world order.
As for the most shocking news mentioned, the apex of each path is not the sequence 1 in common sense, but the sequence 0 that represents the true god, such as the sequence 0 'Sun'.
Klein was not surprised by this, because Evan had already mentioned this information during a deal with Alger.
Moreover, judging from Evan's experience, the mysterious city on his body is the key to his successful dual-path consumption of the potion, and it is a high-level matter related to the dual paths of "hunter" and "assassin".
This mysterious city is clearly something on the same level as the Gray Fog, so Klein had long suspected that the Gray Fog was something shared by the three adjacent paths of "Diviner", "Thief" and "Apprentice".
Klein's current sequence is too low to explore the Gray Fog effectively, so his primary focus is on the mysterious gathering that possesses the Profaned Tablets and the situation of Bernadette, the eldest daughter of Roselle, who was prophesied by Zarathustra to become a great figure in the Extraordinary World.
"This mysterious gathering actually has a complete blasphemous stone tablet, which is truly enviable. Unlike my Tarot Club, which is basically an empty shell now, and I don't even know who the organizer is."
It shouldn't be those seven righteous gods. If it were in the hands of the righteous gods, they would definitely hide it to maintain the order they have created.
Without using his influence to win people over, Russell would never have been able to see the blasphemous stone tablet in person!
So that's an evil god? Who could it be? The dark side of the universe? The primordial witch? The true creator?
The ending of Russell's diary has a sense of being surrounded by enemies and giving up entirely. Is this because of this mysterious organization?
Furthermore, Russell never revealed the name of this mysterious organization. Was it because he dared not write it down? Or because he couldn't? Couldn't even Chinese characters guarantee secrecy?
Isn't it said that Chinese characters are a script that even the true god cannot decipher?
Is this just a rumor? And whether the divine can decipher it is something that no one but the angels of the major churches can know!
But if the gods can decipher it, then in the eyes of the gods, wouldn't the secret of the time traveler not be a secret at all?
Thinking of this, Klein held his breath. If this weren't a gray fog and he didn't have a real physical body, he might have broken out in a cold sweat.
Because it was his biggest secret, one he believed to be the best he could conceal.
If the secret of time travel is not a secret at all, then how could his existence be kept secret from those true gods?
Klein felt a chill run through his body. He felt as if he were being watched by a pair of eyes behind him, and he felt as if he had been stripped naked, and could only tremble.
But Klein is Klein after all. After the Tingen incident, the manipulation of 008, the great battle with Megalos, and the arrival of the true creator, he has become a true warrior.
So Klein quickly came to his senses and kept telling himself that gods are not omniscient or omnipotent. No righteous church's scriptures say that gods are omniscient and omnipotent, except for the Aurora Society. So he shouldn't scare himself.
If you're suspicious and doubtful about everything, you might as well not live your life.
It took Klein a while to adjust his mindset, but a seed was planted in his heart—a seed of doubt about everything.
If Zarathustra's prophecy is true, then perhaps Roselle's eldest daughter, Bernadette, is still alive. After all, it is only natural that high-sequence extraordinary beings live longer than ordinary people, and Mr. Azik is an ancient relic who has lived for at least an era.
Perhaps if I ever have the chance to become a high-sequence extraordinary individual, I can take the initiative to find Bernadette; I believe she should have quite a few of Roselle's diaries.
After all, Russell's diary, which was worthless in the eyes of others, was her father's heirloom!
Zarathustra is an angel of the "diviner" path; he has a specialization in this field, so his prophecies should be credible!
The diary entry provided by Mr. Hanged Man today is of very high quality. I wonder what the contents of the diary entry provided by Evan are?
Klein mentally gave Alger a thumbs up, then turned his gaze to the diary Evan had submitted. He only glanced at it once…
Klein almost lost his composure.
"January 16th, the witch's taste is really quite good!"
Klein's lips twitched. He realized he had underestimated the magnanimity and eccentricities of the great emperor. Such a formidable figure could not be viewed from an ordinary perspective.
Klein suppressed his urge to complain and continued reading.
"On January 20th, I prepared the second blasphemous card."
"Let me think, let me think, where should I hide it?"
"Hmm, I plan to disguise it as a bookmark and slip it into a very valuable book. Unless the recipient is destined to find it, they'll hardly imagine that the most valuable item in such a valuable book is actually that inconspicuous bookmark!"
"Great idea, that's a good one!"
"The most valuable thing in my study is probably the manuscript I compiled from things I wanted to invent based on my past life experiences, but never succeeded in inventing. I'll put this blasphemous plaque inside!"
